Neo Tokyo

With some degree of reluctance, I participated in the latest Artstation Challenge. Mostly I was concerned about having time to finish, but also still agitated over the stance on generative AI. I've always found the past challenges I joined to be a great opportunity to find freshness and innovation in other artists, and coupled with a dire sense of needing to stay sharp, I decided to participate. If there's one thing I won't let the machine do, it's dissuade me from interacting with other real people.
Though it was super difficult finding the time to get everything done to a degree I was satisfied with, I sacrificed a little here and there and crossed the finish line. As always, it was a lot of fun to work on and find countless points of inspiration in my challenge peers.
